  1. Maybe he just needs a bit more time to back his claims up, you wouldn’t go off all guns blazing without knowing you are right, not unless you want to known on Arbtalk as “Simon the Shit Stirrer”.
  2. Apparently it’s a great app, but I already know what they are. 👍
  3. Not the best footage, taken on our evening stroll with the dog, the wing shape, flight pattern and the call gives them away. IMG_7166.mov
  4. I would say it is definitely Paulownia tomentosa.
  5. I saw Liam Gallagher at Centre Parks, with his wife and kids, the bird from All Saints, he looked quite happy, should do I suppose as he is a millionaire rockstar.
  6. I am saying you need to back up your claim, not just shit in my ears. The next couple of days? I thought your mates had visuals, eye witnesses, get them to send their proof off their phones, and make a few quid on the side by selling them to The Daily Mail at the same time .👍
  7. I didn’t start this farce with grand claims that you haven’t backed up with any credible evidence , but I will be quite happy to read it when it arrives, what you waiting for, Godot? 👍
  8. Post up the proof or shut your face. 👍
  9. I went to an All Tomorrow's Party Weekend at Pontins at Camber Sands a good few years back, curated by Belle and Sebastian, an incredible weekend of music, been to a few Northern Soul Weekenders at these places also. They are mostly dead after next week, with the infrastructure already in place it would make sense to cash in, still no evidence of this happening apart from hearsay.
  10. Apologise for what, not believing a rumour started by someone I don’t know? **************** off. 😂
  11. Yeah, but you weren't there man!
  12. It’s also the last week of the school holidays. Apart from the occasional Northern Soul weekender etc, these places become deserted for large periods. Why wouldn’t Haven cash in on the lucrative tax payer funded free for all?
  13. I wouldn’t be surprised if there was a modicum of truth in it to be honest. A couple of coach loads of unprocessed individuals being temporarily held on site until a permanent location is finalised, obviously being downplayed/lied about by Haven. I mean, imagine paying £1200 quid for a family holiday and then this happens, it would be a total walkout and refund wouldn’t it?
  14. Or him and his mates could look like a bunch of shit stirring Ollie Muirs fan boy little bitches, it’s balanced on a knifedge. 😂
  15. A cabinet maker friend told me to oil my newly finished furniture once a day for a week, once a week for a month, then once a year for life.
  16. Stupid as Mick? I am quite surprised by now that no holiday maker currently on site has refuted the Haven claims and sent photo images of these 100 or so immigrants to the local press etc. Or that no journalists or even somebody representing Reform haven’t sent someone down there to collect some evidence. Hopefully the press release by Haven turns out to be lies, and your mates turn out to be right.
  17. Are these ‘wardens’ the same guys who invited you to the Tommy Toe-rag gig down in London? Maybe they have just heard the rumour and jumped the gun, misinforming you? Are they still making this claim now Haven have denied the rumour?
  18. If I had a big enough freezer I would freeze them first, I reckon that would sort out any chute issues.
  19. Some of todays pick, peaches, tomatoes, red and white grapes and Padrons. The Padron peppers are my particular favourite, splashed with a little oil then blistered directly on the BBQ grill, a little sprinkle of course sea salt and viola. I have a glut of apples/pears this year. I have been making fresh juice with the apple press, but the heat is causing large amounts of fruit to fall, too much to deal with all at once. I was thinking of putting them through the gravity fed chipper, straight into a vat for making Cider, anyone else used a CS100 or similar to macerate apple’s successfully?
  20. The Leicester City fans have a particular opinion of him.
  21. I’ve never owned any but have handled them, very nice build quality and those Japanese know a thing or two about making a blade that holds an edge.
  22. It is quite therapeutic cutting the hovering bastards in half with a sharp pair of Felcos.
  23. I was working at a house just down the road from me last week. The owner keeps bees, has 15 hives and has a wild bee hive in his barn wall, which was where we were having lunch. The bees were being predated by Asian Hornets, the bastards hover at the entrance and snatch the poor drones as they leave the nest, clip off their wings and carry them off to their young. They are pretty aggressive in comparison to the European relatives which are pretty passive, and I have clear felled whole blocks of Sweetchestnut around nests in the past, even climbed past nests without issue, felling the tree would get proper on their tits though, he is a lucky boy.
  24. That will be interesting to see, especially if there are any long spans in the build. I used to train one of the companies in the SE who would remove/replace sea defences made of Greenheart/Purpleheart. They could install large curved groins with huge lengths of timber being tensioned with 360’s.
  25. We have been battling the heat for months now, with hardly any rain, currently watering to just keep things alive. The okra have dense foliage so cast deep shadow on the soil at root level, seems to help them deal with the heat.
